Can you log something to appear in the Windows Update Log? I mean, let’s say you have a service installed from driver package. Package installation will be reported. But if you update the firmware of your device then this event will not appear at all.
Is there any way to log something into the Windows Update or should you just create something like desktop notification (like a toast)?
Most drivers log their events to the system event log or a custom ETW channel. And system admins generally expect to find events like firmware changes in those logs.
Is there a reason that you want to log something to somewhere else?
Okay, got it. So, It is not technically possible, right? I just wondered if there is a way to notify a user that firmware is updated. Event logs are usually recommended for this. Just wanted to be sure.
Why would a user want to know? The IT staff might want to know, and they’ll look in the system logs. User's don’t care at all.
